ALAÏA BAGS

Alaïa bags stay far from fleeting noise. They don’t follow trends or seek immediate attention. In fact, they set the trends. Alaïa bags are crafted with the same precision as a haute couture dress. With masterfully measured craftsmanship, a perfect balance between function and sculpture. Each Alaïa bag is part of an intimate visual language, where beauty is expressed through curves, spaces, and discreetly versatile structures.

What defines an Alaïa bag?

An Alaïa bag is not understood as a simple accessory. It is an extension, like the brand’s dresses, of the body. Part of a person’s natural movement. Models like the Le Click East-West, introduced in the Spring 2025 collection, with its concave silhouette and hinge-style closure, or the unmistakable Alaïa Le Teckel, launched in Spring 2024, long and elegant. Both represent the maison’s central idea: to become part of the wearer’s organicity. The leather is crafted with the same artisanal devotion as the fabrics. The design is conceived from use, but also from the emotion of the one who carries it.

There is a special sculptural air to Alaïa handbags. Pure forms, clean lines, and a balance in weight and proportion. Even the smallest details, such as portable mirrors in some models, respond to a clear philosophy: to accompany with a sense of practicality and elegance.

How does Pieter Mulier reinterpret Alaïa handbags?

Pieter Mulier has extended his gaze over the archive with the same honesty as he brings to garments. His vision for Alaïa bags respects the essence of Azzedine, but adds present-day functionality, lightness and modernity. Without losing sight of the house’s soul, Mulier has introduced lightweight materials, dynamic silhouettes, and unexpected proportions.

Alaïa Le Cœur is perhaps one of the finest examples: a quasi-playful, powerful, and emotional reinterpretation. A heart turned into a portable structure, into a symbol, into an object of desire. Every Alaïa purse born under his direction keeps the legacy’s promise: beauty without noise.

How to wear an Alaïa bag?

Always naturally. An Alaïa bag or Alaïa purse does not impose itself on one’s style, but integrates with its principles of organicity. It works both with Mulier’s architectural looks or to elevate more relaxed outfits during the day. It can accompany a knit dress or refine an everyday office ensemble.

At OTTODISANPIETRO, our selection of Alaïa bags reflects the vision of the house. Chosen not only for their form, but for what they represent. Pieces that don’t obey the urgency of the moment, but the permanence of their time.
